Fix/workaround a quirk in SecureTransport

We set anchors from QSslConfiguration::caCertificates. On macOS these
anchors are by default copied from the system store, so I expected
setting 'trust those anchors only' should not break anything.
Somehow, on 10.11 SecTrustEvaluate fails to evaluate a valid
certificate chain (apparently because it has an intermediate
certificate, it's just a guess, since their API/docs are too poor
to explain well what was the real cause) as I can see connecting,
for example, to google.com - we have a chain with a valid root,
say it's GetTrust CA and we have it also in our list of anchors we set
on trust, but evaluation fails with: kSecTrustResultRecoverableTrustFailure:

"This means that you should not trust the chain as-is, but that
the chain could be trusted with some minor change to the evaluation
context, such as ignoring expired certificates or adding an
additional anchor to the set of trusted anchors."

Since none of certs is expired, and the required anchor already set,
this must be some bug in SecureTransport. For macOS (deployment
target) < 10.12 we fallback to the original version of the code
(the one that unfortunately does not allow us to limit the set
of trusted anchors by what client code wants to trust).
